I wondered if this could be applied to different applications. I had some ideas of auto-annealing software applications for engineering and other verticals but those were programmatically deterministic.…

Trading is a unique challenge because it’s known to “mostly” be a random walk simulation. Unless somebody trades with a LARGE sum of money, it’s people trading against algorithms. Can you then try…
